Tool And Work Area Set-Up

WARNING
Set up the press tool and work area according to
these procedures to reduce the risk of injury from
electric shock, fire, crushing injuries and other
causes, and prevent tool and system damage.
1. Check work area for:
• Adequate lighting.
• Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
If present, do not work in area until sources have
been identified and corrected. The press tool is
not explosion proof and can cause sparks.
• Clear, level, stable and dry place for operator. Do
not use the machine while standing in water.
2. Inspect the work to be done and determine the correct
RIDGID tool and attachment(s) for the application.
Using an incorrect attachment for an application can
cause injury, damage the tool and make incomplete
connections. For a complete listing of RIDGID attach-
ments available for this tool, see the Ridge Tool
Catalog on line at www.RIDGID.com or call Ridge
Tool Technical Services (800) 519-3456. Make sure
that the tool and attachment have been inspected as
directed in their instructions.
3. Evaluate the work area and determine if any barriers
are needed to keep bystanders out. Bystanders can
distract the tool operator during use.
4. Confirm that the battery is removed then unlock and
fully open the attachment mounting pin. See Figure 3
and Figure 4. If there is an attachment in the tool, slide
it out of the tool.
5. Slide the correct attachment in the press tool then fully
close the attachment mounting pin and rotate into the
locked position as shown in Figure 3 . The attachment
mounting pin must be fully closed and locked to pre-
vent tool damage during use.
